Effect of Partial Replacement of Cement by Mixture of Glass Powder
and Silica Fume Upon Concrete Strength Engr. Abdul Ghayoor khan, Dr. Bazid khan
Abstract—All over the world the most common consuming construction material is concrete. It is well know that concrete is the combination of cement, aggregates and water. The production of cement results in the formation of carbon dioxide gas causes the environmental pollution. About 7 percent of carbon dioxide gas is evolved from cement industries to atmosphere. Keeping in view about the environmental pollution which may leads to some serious issues of health, so it is essential to use locally available pozolanic materials as a partial replacement of cement because these materials are economical as compared to Portland cement and also friendly to the environment without compromising on concrete strength.
In concrete cement can be partially replaced by different supplementary cementitious materials. In the recent years pozzolonic materials, glass powder and silica fume are used in concrete as a partial cement replacement to improve the strength of concrete.
In this research work the mixture of glass powder and silica fume were used in concrete as a partial cement replacement, to study its effect upon concrete strength. The mix proportion of 1:2:4 was selected for all the concrete samples with water to binder ratio of 0.55. For comparison, a control sample of concrete was prepared without mixture of glass powder and silica fume to compare it with the various samples containing different percentages of mixture of glass powder and silica fume as a partial replacement of cement in concrete. Results discovered that the usage of mixture of glass powder and silica fume in concrete as a partial replacement of cement increases the concrete strength. Such as compressive strength increases up to 8.64%, tensile strength increases up to 15% and flexural strength increases up to 7.08% at the age of 28 days. It is concluded that maximum strength is achieved at 28 days by 30 percent replacement of cement through mixture of glass powder and silica fume in concrete and the strength was decreased by increasing the mixture of glass powder and silica fume content beyond 30 percent. Therefore 30 percent replacement of cement is the optimum amount to achieve the
higher strength. From the SEM analysis of concrete samples it’s proved that both the pozzolonic materials contribute in hydration process and further validated the strength test results.
Keywords—Glass Powder, Silica Fume, compressive strength, Tensile strength, Flexure strength, SEM Analysis.
I. INTRODUCTION
Concrete is one of the world’s most widely used material. It consists of binding material (cement), coarse aggregate, fine aggregate and water (Chandra and Berntsson, 2003; BSI, 1980). In the world there are many different sources for emitting the carbon dioxide gas comprising of cement manufacturing industries, vehicles and burning of fossil fuels. Global warming is the main reason due to the emission of greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide gas to the atmosphere. Cement act as a binding material to bind fine and coarse aggregate in concrete but cement industries cause an environmental pollution due to the emission of carbon dioxide gas. It is concluded that manufacturing of 1 ton cement produces 1 ton carbon dioxide gas. About 7 percent of carbon dioxide gas is evolved from cement industries to the atmosphere, i.e. fifty percent carbon dioxide gas of all industrial emission (Mehta, 1999). During the manufacturing of cement different harmful gases are produced like Nitrogen Oxide, Sulphur Dioxide, Carbon Dioxide and the dust.(Kampa and Castnas, 2008; Friedrich and Pregger, 2009). Environmental pollution causes due to releasing of dust to air from cement industries. Cement dust created adverse effect on plants, ecosystem and human health. To solve these problems it is required for the cement industries to create some solutions. (Adak et al., 2007; Baby et al., 2008). Fast-growing of industries decrease natural resources, emissions of greenhouse gases and increase in pollution contributing to global warming. The issues related to such depletions and global warming can be overcome by using supplementary cementitious materials i.e. metakaoline, fly ash and silica fume (Mala et al., 2013). Using of cementitious materials as a partial replacement of cement in concrete decreases the amount of cement which in turn reduces the emission of CO2. (Ecosmart, 2012). By utilizing different supplementary cementitious materials as a partial replacement of cement in concrete the compressive strength is positively improved. Cement replaced by minerals has the ability to improve its early strength, which ultimately results in the reduction of the quantity of the cement (Khokhar et al., 2010). The basic properties like strength of concrete mainly depends on the quality of concrete. Different properties like impermeability and durability are dependent on the compressive strength of concrete (Neville and brooks, 2002;

Taylor, 2002). Usage of ideal quantity of supplementary cementitious material leading to achieve better strength, heat of hydration, permeability, workability and chemical resistance. Reaction between the hydration of OPC and oxides of cementing material results to improve the concrete durability (Perry, 1987).
Keeping in view the worst effects of binding material related to the cement manufacturing on environment it requires to develop alternative binding materials for making concrete. Therefore, extensive research on the use of cement replacement by industrial byproducts and many other waste materials. Usage of these by-products as a binding materials is becoming popular all over the world because of reduction of evolving of many harmful gases in the environment which have good effects on the environment (G.Vijaykumar et al., 2008).
There are many by-products produced by the factories which has been used for the binding material like silica fume which is produced by smelting process of silicon metal and Ferro silicon alloy manufacture, comprising of extensive amount of fine and amorphous silicon dioxide (SiO2) elements. In civil engineering works for stabilization of soil silica fume has been used as a binder in combination with cement gives good result (Taylor et al., 1996).
The most commonly used cementitious material is silica fume. It consists of small particles having surface area from 13,000 m2/kg to 30,000 m2/kg. Size of silica fume is hundred times smaller than cement particles which decreases the permeability of concrete. Reduction in the permeability of concrete decreases the deterioration caused by several factors such as alkali-aggregate reaction, carbonation, chloride attack, freezing and thawing, sulfate attack, etc. (Muhit et al., 2013).
Million tons of waste glass is produced every year in the world due to the improvement of living standards, the rapid population growth, industrialization and urbanization. Therefore it has become a critical problem around the word to utilize the waste glass. Glass waste is considered as non-decaying material that pollutes the surrounding environment. Hence, a requirement of the development of new technologies are necessary for the utilization of waste glass. Thus glass is widely used in aggregates and cement mixes as a pozzolonic material, it contains different chemical varieties such as soda lime glass, alkali- silicate glass and boro- silicate glass.
II. BACKGROUND
Usage of additional cementitious material in concrete have its significance in the past and may follow its significance in the future. Many researchers have been trying to replace the constituents of concrete with cheap and locally available materials because of the rising cost of materials used in concrete and the environmental problems due to the production of cement. Therefore the supplementary cementitious materials (pozzolanic materials) dig up more attention.
In concrete partial replacement of cement through pozzolanic materials have proved to be more favorable from prospective of concrete strength and durability. Tikalsky et al.
(1988) stated that the partial replacement of cement by fly ash up to 35 percent in concrete the positive change in strength at later age. Udoeyo et al. (2004) reported that wood ash affected the flexural and compressive strength. Whereas in the start compressive and flexural strength is minimum and improves with the passage of time. Zongjin and Jin (2003) stated that using of mineral admixture in concrete effect the modulus of elasticity of fresh concrete and improved the strength of concrete. Givi et al. (2010) concluded that concrete setting time, strength and workability can be improved by using of rice husk ash in concrete. Yilmaz (2010) stated that the permeability of concrete is decreased and its setting time is increased by using of silica fume in concrete.
Silica fume is a supplementary cementing material produced from the smelting process of silicon metal and ferrosilicon alloy. It mainly composed of SiO2 more than 85 percent. When Silica fume is mixed with cement in suitable quantity, below than 15 percent, it will increase the durability and strength of concrete. It is very reactive pozzolanic material due to the high amount of amorphous SiO2 content.
Glass is an amorphous material with high silica content, it can be used as a partial replacement of cement when the size of particles of glass powder is less than 75μm. (Federio and Chidiac, 2001, Jin.W, Meyer. and Baxter. 2000). To prevent alkali silica reaction particle size should be less than 75μm (G.Vijaykumar et al., 2008). Glass is manufactured with a mixture of three major components i.e. sand, limestone and silica. When glass powder is mixed with cement in a suitable quantity, increases the durability and strength of concrete. The micro structural analysis shows that glass powder produced a dense matrix which increases the concrete durability. (Ahmad, 2002).

DISCUSSION
From the Table 6 and Figures (1__
4) it is clear that the concrete in which replacement of cement by mixture of silica fume and glass powder its compressive strength is less than the control sample at 3 and 7 days curing and then increases its strength at 14 and 28 days curing. Because glass powder and silica fume are pozolanic materials and the pozolanic reactions starts later. Maximum compressive strength of concrete is achieved by 30 percent replacement of cement by mixture of silica fume and glass powder at 28 days curing. Replacing of cement by mixture of silica fume and glass powder beyond 30 percent reduces the concrete compressive strength. Therefore 30 percent of cement replacement by the mixture of silica fume and glass powder is the optimum quantity to achieve the higher strength. From the tables and graphs of tensile and flexural it is also clear that maximum tensile and flexural strength of concrete is reached by 30 percent replacement of cement by mixture of glass powder and silica fume at 28 days curing. Replacing of cement by mixture of glass powder and silica fume beyond 30 percent also reduces the concrete tensile and flexural strengths. The increase in strength is due to the reaction of silica fume and glass powder with Ca(OH)2 .This Ca(OH)2 is a by-product which is produced during the cement hydration process and about 25 percent Ca(OH)2 is formed. Glass powder and silica fume are pozolanic materials which will react with Ca(OH)2 but at later stages and produce C-S-H an extra binding materials to bind fine and coarse aggregates which provides additional strength. Pozolanic reaction is slow reaction and may start at later ages due to which it offers lower strength at start ages and then increase the strength of concrete with the passage of time. From the scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analysis of blended concrete samples it is evident that no clear particles of silica fume and glass powder are seen, so its prove that both the pozolanic materials (glass powder and silica fume) react with Ca(OH)2 and produce (C-S-H) an extra binding material which provides additional strength to concrete.

CONCLUSIONS
The following conclusions are drawn from the research based on the experimental investigation of using mixture of glass powder and silica fume as a partial cement replacement.
Flexure, tensile, and compressive strength of concrete is effected by incorporation of mixture of silica fume and glass powder in concrete.
In concrete mixture of silica fume and glass powder can be used effectively and efficiently as a partial cement replacement.
From experimental work it is observed that 3 and 7 days strength are decreased by using mixture of silica fume and glass powder as a partial cement replacement and then increased after curing at 14, and 28 days. 30 percent mixture of silica fume and glass powder as a cement replacement give maximum strength at 28 days.
Therefore in concrete 30% mixture of silica fume and glass powder can be used is recommended as the best amount for higher strength.
It is concluded from the SEM analysis of blended concrete samples that no clear particles of silica fume and glass powder are seen, hence it’s prove that both the pozzolonic materials contribute in hydration process.
